Insights
‘Nonna’ is grandmother in Italian, a word which conjures up a notion of warmth, giving and ideally homemade pasta! This Geum makes a perfect present to offer a grandmother, but setting all sentimentality aside, it is a hardy perennial that provides an astounding and life enhancing blaze of colour in the border.
